18"s will ride much nicer with a thicker sidewall than the 19's.

I went with 18's bbs lm but im about go powdercoat them so should I go with gold with a polizhe lip or silver with a polish lip ?

I had 19s for a couple summers and now I am on 18s.....the ride is much better. I recommend 18s.

Do you guys think 18's look better than 19's? I cant decide if i should go bigger.... or not.

Up to you! You can rock a 19 in the back, and 18 in the front lol
In my opinion, 19 on both ends is a bit bulky, but it's up to you to decide.

19s

9 times out of 10 will usualy LOOK better to most people ... the "big wheel" look is popular and i prefer the look of the larger 19s

Also.. keep this in mind..... if you run a wheel with a lip Vs a wheel design that extends to the edge of the wheel ...say the SSR Professors or virtually any Volks compared to the Advan Model 5s The wheels with lips while looking cool and all,... look at least an inch smaller than they really are ... 19s look like 18's, 18's look like 17's....

I had / have a weird phenomenon to report...

I've had several 18 in volks and otehr 18 inch wheels...as well as 19s over the years....
And STRANGELY... my car seems to FEEL softer and ride better on.... 19s Vs the 18s...

it has perplexed me for years... but i notice it on 3 different sets of 19 inch wheels and 3-4 different sets of 18s....

the 18s alwasy feel more agressive and sporty and better for hammering the car in the canyons & trac k... but on the street in daily driving ... the 19s feel smooother....


i must be nutz...

??? not sure what you mean by 'bulky'...?? that is the 1st i've ever heard that term referring to wheels...

i have always wondered about the mixed fitments I've never seen it work really well except on a race car...?

BiggDatty

Bulky as in like, to big. Like you know how people rock them big flashy rims? Like, they're to overwhelming and stuff.

lol...actually I agree with this.^

My Volks 19s were smooth but maybe its my new tires with the 18s that make it feel more comfortable. lol

edgy
